What a week! With school starting and errands to run, I tried to figure out a good schedule for my work outs and found that they are all still so random. I figure if I am getting them in than I am good no matter what time of the day they are.
This past weekend was packed with things. Ryan and I ate out twice this weekend which is way out of the ordinary and along with that I got the added calories. It is still weird to me when I eat out. It is hard to find good things and I end up just eating a smaller portion, but even then it makes me feel icky afterwards if I take it a bit too far. Still with the eating out and splurges, I dropped 2 pounds. That puts me at 49.5 pounds lost and 10.5 pounds until goal. After this mornings weigh in (which was excellent-no complaints) I wish I would have held back a bit on the eating out. Maybe, I could have lost another half pound and rounded out my weight loss. Next week I would love to hit that 50 mark!
People have been too nice this week. I have got alot of complements on my success and when I hear these things, they don't know how much that helps me. I know I have physically changed, but when you hear that other people notice, it really gives you the boost to continue. I am happy to report that I am down another pant size. I haven't been in this size of pants for YEARS!!! When I slipped them on, I about cried. I called my Mom from the dressing room! A friend asked Ryan about how proud he was of me for all I have done and he said, "He was proud until she had to keep buying clothes!" I was literally down to practically nothing and I had to go get something to wear. Buying clothes has been a neat experience. For the longest time I was still grabbing the same old sizes and it took me awhile to finally grasp that I could actually fit into smaller sizes than before.
So, even though this has been ALOT of work and everyday is a challenge, it has been so worth it and with that I will trudge along!

I am still laughing at Ryan's comment. "She buys clothes on Monday and by Friday she's giving them away." He is so funny!
